Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences Research Colloquium Series presents: Dr. Jordan Manes Ph.D., Research Scientist

Dr. Jordan Manes is a research scientist in the Department of Speech Language, and Hearing Sciences at Boston University. Jordan received her B.A. in Psychology from the University of Texas at San Antonio and completed her Ph.D. in Systems and Cognitive Neuroscience at Northwestern University. Her research focuses on the understanding of brain-behavior interactions contributing to speech and voice difficulties in Parkinson’s disease.
